Sage makes it easy to document and publish mathematical results with a document mark-up language called LaTeX. The TeX typesetting system is used to process LaTeX files to create documents, in much the same way that web browsers parse HTML documents to create web pages. A plain text file containing LaTeX markup is passed to the TeX processor. The processor parses the source file, includes graphics from other files, and produces a vector graphics file in a format such as DVI (Device Independent), Postscript, or PDF. Other types of documents can also be created. Many publishers of mathematical and scientific books and journals encourage authors to submit their work as LaTeX files, and some journals require authors to use it. Both TeX and LaTeX are available under open-source licenses. LaTeX requires an entire book of its own; this section will only give you the bare minimum of information you need to use LaTeX with Sage.
